1 in 50 developers worldwide starts every day on daily.dev. If you want to build a developer community, that's where you want to be. Squads lets you build and grow a community that's engaged and active, where developers already are.
Hey everyone! 👋
Building a developer community is tough. I know because I’ve been there. You start with a vision, but getting the right people in the door and keeping them engaged can be a real challenge. That’s why we built daily.dev Squads—to make it easier to create a thriving developer community from day one.
With Squads, you get a head start by tapping into a global network where developers are already active. Over 1 in 50 developers worldwide start their day on daily.dev, and during our beta alone, more than 10,000 Squads were created.🤯
That shows how much people need a space like this.
Here’s what I think really makes Squads special:
• Discoverability: Squads are integrated into the daily.dev ecosystem, so your community is immediately visible to developers already on the platform.
• High Engagement: Developers on daily.dev are actively engaged, so you won’t have to struggle to keep conversations alive—people are here and ready to talk.
• Content Curation: As a Squad leader, you can curate the most relevant content for your community, whether it’s articles, tutorials, or videos, keeping your members engaged and informed.
I’m really excited to see what you build with Squads. I’ll be around all day to chat, so feel free to ask any questions or share your thoughts.
Thanks for checking out daily.dev Squads. Let’s build some amazing communities together! 💥
@nimrodkramer lovely idea, I guess there's an imminent need to have a place where developers can collaborate.
Though being a non-tech person would also love to peek in
@nimrodkramer Congrats on the launch!
The Squads’ discoverability feature is a fantastic addition, giving devs instant visibility within the daily.dev ecosystem and making community-building so much easier.
How about adding a 'Squad Challenges' feature where devs can collaborate on mini-projects or tackle coding problems together? I think this could really boost engagement and learning!
All the very best!!!
Hey Nimrod!
Daily.dev Squads sounds like an incredible tool for building developer communities. The integration into the daily.dev ecosystem is a game-changer for discoverability and engagement. How do you see the role of content curation evolving as more Squads are created?
@web3_antivirus squads are all about curation. Yes you can create content in them as well but we believe curation is a super powerful way to increase the signal in the noisy content environment we currently live in. So it will become more prominent, much better and (hopefully) easier with Squads.
@web3_antivirus Hey Alex, that's such a good question. We do think that in a world in which content creation has become a commodity thanks to AI, content curation becomes a game changer. We believe the best Squads will be a mix of content created on them and content collected from daily.dev and other places.
How did I miss this? This is and looks awesome. And it even fills my entire extra wide screen beautifully. I can finally trim a good chunk of channels I'm following on other apps. Supported.
It's incredible how big tech and the developer community is on daily.dev! Wish us product managers have as big of a community as ya'll!
Congrats on the launch and building such a great community dedicated to devs @nimrodkramer and team!
Squads is the piece of the puzzle daily.dev always missed. Now we can stay up to date and hangout together. I'm already part of several squads and looking forward to see what communities you'll build next
Daily.dev Squads has been an incredible tool for my dev communities. I have been a contributor, builder, and also manager of Squads and couldn't be happier with the experience.
The distribution Daily.dev provides in unbelievable, the community is extremely engaged.
Congratulations on the launch @nimrodkramer & team 🔥
Congratulations on the launch! Daily.dev is my favorite go to place to find all the latest tech news and for us to grow our own community. With how fast our squad is growing, I can already see how much of an impact dailydev has been making for us :)
@tessa_mero Thank you Tessa! It couldn't make us happier that you're enjoying Squads and that it drives value for you. The appwrite Squad is one of our favs.
Congrats to the daily.dev team on launching Squads! 🎉 I'm curious, how does Squads help foster engagement within developer communities, and are there tools to track or measure that engagement over time?
Super excited for this launch. Developer communities are tough to build and Daily.dev has been doing such an incredible job empowering developer communities. It is truly an inspiring way to get content and developers in a single platform that has one of the best user experiences that exists. I have been part of Pieces for Developers and Flutter squad and it provides such an incredible way to share resources and connect with the specialized community. One platform multiple communities and ease of use. this is the best experience
When I think of Squads, I have only one sentence in mind:
"A product that was built together with the developer's community now gets a place where developers can build themselves together."
@nimrodkramer congrats on the launch, excited to see the progress of dailydotdev. Proud to be a part of first squad made on your platform. Keep going!!!
This is a really great update. I love how it enables these niche developer communities to find their people through Squads. Need to start checking this out more myself as well!
